Health insurance / healthcare
By MappoTrell on Fri, 16/05/2008 - 4:58pm
Greetings to all QLers.
I'm considering a move to Qatar, and want to do a bit of homework on living conditions there. Can you tell me about the healthcare system there? I know that some basic services, such as emergency help, are provided for free as long as you're a resident.
But what about dental, optical, etc?
What about other, more involved medical procedures?
I'm from Australia, and in additon to standard Medicare, I have a private health cover. So if I want a similar level of medical servicing in Qatar, what are my options?
That's just to get started :), but appreciate any informed and meaningful advice.
Cheers.
